“	À plus tard, calamars !	”
— La phrase phare des Sœurs Calamazones

Les Sœurs Calamazones (Japonais : シオカラーズ Shiokarāzu, littéralement Couleurs de la mer) sont le duo phare de Chromapolis, constitué d’Ayo et d’Oly (アオリ、ホタル Aori et Hotaru). Elles gèrent la Chronique de Chromapolis, annoncent les événements, mises à jour, et les stages actuels. Elles s’occupent aussi des Splatfests en étant en concurrence l’une contre l’autre, elles représentent les deux camps s’affrontant. Malgré ce nom, elles sont cousines et non sœurs.

Ayo

Article principal: Ayo

Les couleurs représentant Ayo sont le magenta et le noir. Elle a un design plus incisif en comparaison à sa cousine, avec des yeux angulaires et les oreilles ragaillardies. Ses tentacules sont longues et noires, attachées dans un large cercle à l’arrière de sa tête, et se décolorent du rose à la fin. Elle est très motivée et positive, ce qui la rend souvent innocente, et fait des commentaires simples avec un visage très expressif. Son solo, Tokimeki ☆ Bomb Rush, est une musique pop très exubérante et rapide, vue avec son énergie en voyant Ayo courir à travers la scène.

Sa classe d'arme favorite est le Rouleau, et il semble qu'elle utilise le Rouleau héroïque

Her amiibo entry reads as follows: Ayo est la membre la plus joyeuse du duo d'idole pop connu sous le nom de Squid Sisters dans le jeu Splatoon ™. Avec Oly, elle présente Inkopolis News et les Splatfest , dans lequel les Inklings doivent choisir un des deux camps et livrer bataille contre l'équipe adverse dans des Guerres de Territoire.Ces deux cousines sont devenus célèbres après avoir remporté le premier concours annuel de chant folklorique des jeunes du comté de Calamari, et leurs voix remarquables continuent à faire basculer Chromapolis!

Oly

Article principal: Oly

Le schéma de couleurs de Marie est vert clair et gris clair. Elle a un design plus décontracté par rapport à sa cousine, avec les yeux lourds-couverts et les oreilles légèrement tombantes. Ses tentacules sont courtes et gris clair, attachées dans un grand arc sur le côté droit de sa tête et décolorant au vert sur les extrémités. Elle est moins émotionnelle, et ne donne que de légers sourires. Beaucoup de ses commentaires sont sarcastiques, parfois même méchants envers Ayo ou d'autre chose. Son solo, Tide Goes Out , est une chanson lente, sereine, avec un mouvement maintenu principalement à ses bras.

Sa classe d'arme préférée sont les Snipers, et elle a déjà été vu entrain d'utiliser un Concentraceur Héroïque.

Her amiibo entry reads as follows: Marie is the sassiest member of the pop idol duo known as the Squid Sisters in the Splatoon™ game. Along with Callie, she hosts Inkopolis News and Splatfest events, in which Inklings pick one of two sides and battle the opposing team in Turf War. These two cousins rose to fame after winning Calamari County’s first annual Youth Folk-Singing Contest, and their remarkable voices continue to rock Inkopolis!

Hosting Duties

Splatfest

Callie and Marie also host Splatfest, a multiplayer event in which players of a region divide into opposing teams. The Squid Sisters are also on opposite teams, with Callie's team always on the left side of the artwork and Pledge Box and Marie on the right. For the duration of the event, their clothes and tentacles temporarily change color to match that of their team's Ink and they perform a live concert in Inkopolis atop trucks outfitted with stage equipment.

At the top left corner of the box showing the player's Splatfest Power is a pair of eyes representing the Squid Sister they have sided with: players on Callie's team see her angular eyes, and those on Marie's team see her heavy-lidded eyes. Both versions have their signature pupils, but with a dark red color instead of the usual gold.

Live Performance

On January 30, 2016, a real-life Squid Sisters concert called "Shiokaraibu" (Japanese: シオカライブ, translating to "Squid Sisters Live") was held at Niconico Tokaigi, a gaming event in Chiba, Japan. It starred digital projections of Callie and Marie, using unique, high-quality 3D models instead of those used in-game. They performed all five of their songs, most of them being extended or remixed slightly, ending with Calamari Inkantation.

On April 29, 2016, the second live performance by the Squid Sisters was held at Choongakusai 2016, a music festival featuring a variety of popular artists. The concert featured the debut of two new songs: Tokimeki ☆ Bomb Rush (Japanese: トキメキ☆ボムラッシュ, translating to "Heart-Beating ☆ Bomb Rush") and Tide Goes Out. They were solos sung by Callie and Marie, respectively. The following day, it was revealed that the new songs will be unlockable with the new Callie and Marie Amiibo figures launching in July.

Amiibo

On April 30, 2016, Splatoon JP announced that Squid Sisters' Amiibo will be released at 7th July 2016.

Using the Squid Sisters' amiibo applies all the cosmetic changes of a Splatfest to Inkopolis Plaza, and the player can choose what song they perform. This is the only way to see the accompanying dances for these songs, with the exception of City of Color, the default for Splatfests.

In the manga series

They first appeared in issue 1 of the CoroCoro manga Splatoon, where they announced the CoroCoro Cup. They are hosts for that tournament. They now often appear in issues starting with issue 2.

Trivia

• Callie and Marie's names together sound like the squid dish "Calamari", which is also Italian for "squid".
• The Squid Sisters' Japanese name, Shiokarāzu, is a portmanteau of shiokara (fermented squid stew) and the English word "colors." The name is romanized as "Sea O' Colors", which is fitting given the nature of Splatoon.
  • The voice clips used for "Staaaay fresh!" sound like something in between "Shiokarāzu" and "sea o' colors", especially in Marie's case.
• Their names in Japanese, Aori and Hotaru, are derived from real-world species "Aori-ika" (Bigfin Reef Squid), and "Hotaru-ika" (Firefly Squid).
• In the Japanese version, they both have a bit of a Kansai dialect.
• Callie and Marie are presumably the second oldest Inklings (assuming they are the same age), with the oldest being Cap'n Cuttlefish. However, it is assumed that other adult Inklings do not participate in Turf War and are simply absent from the game.
• The horizontal marks on their outfits resemble the cuts made in squid when grilled.
• If the player stands outside the Squid Sisters' studio, they will notice them and wave, as pictured in the Gallery.
• The colors of the chairs Callie and Marie sit on in the studio reflect the Ink colors of the player's last match, or the colors of the current Splatfest. The main color is the opponents' color, with arrows in the player's team color.
• The hand movement they do during their catchphrase, "Staaaay fresh!", is supposed to resemble the moving tentacles of a squid.
• Several fans have noted that Callie and Marie resemble Bayonetta and Jeanne from the Bayonetta series. It is unknown if this was intentional.
• Before Splatoon was released, the Squid Sisters were not idols, but were instead planned to be "shrine maidens." They were meant to transmit divine messages from god to the Inklings. This is why they are in charge of receiving and announcing Splatfests in the current game.
• The Squid Sisters' grandfather, Cap'n Cuttlefish, has two small pictures of them taped up on the corner of his shack, one of Callie and one of Marie.
